Around 2013, author and cardiologist Sandeep Jauhar started noticing some worrying changes in his father.

In his new book, My Father’s Brain: Life in the Shadow of Alzheimer’s, Jauhar chronicles the challenges of caring for a sick parent and explains where medicine is today when it comes to treatment for this incurable illness.
